Molinos Coffee

Friendly, personal service and the best French press I've ever had. Molino's is located in downtown Riverside with a view of the historic and beautiful Mission Inn. Comfortable and engaging atmosphere. The only downside is that the bathroom was out of order and I had to walk downstairs which was like walking into a ride at Disneyland.

Where to begin: this place is SO much fun. We love the hours and we have yet to have a bad beverage. We've had their cortadito, cafe coin leche, their pumpkin spice latte is AMAZING! The baristas are great people, share great conversations, and make the visit enjoyable. It's a great place to visit for conversations, to study, and everything in between! A definite place to visit when in downtown Riverside.

I usually get Spiced Chai here and it's great. Today, however, the Chai was cold. The shop looks great but the customer service, however, the opposite. I used to come here very often last year, and the year before but now with its growing popularity, Molinos Coffee is not the same.

They do a good job with their espresso-hand drawn, better than Starbucks . Not a great selection of baked goids. Plenty of seating and natural light, with big windows offering a view of the Mission Inn.

I’m alwAys there in the morning because the gal who opens is sweet, makes great coffee and to be honest the pastries are the bomb. Try it and enjoy!

Molino's is my favorite coffee shop in downtown Riverside. They have excellent service and they're coffee is exquisite. There is a bunch of seating, free wifi and a really chill environment for studying or getting work done.

A fantastic way to start your morning with a cup of your favorite drink. Cozy coffee shop with a great vibe. Excellent views from the seating area.

1 star because their coffee and muffins are good. They need to work on their customer service.
So I was totally disappointed with the service. First of all I love the coffee they serve & the service is honestly a hit and miss so far with my visits.
I see a lot of clients and some are new to riverside they ask for recommendations and I always said Molinos coffee! It has a great view of the mission in, cozy during rainy days and the coffee is really good! I want to say that I went 2-3 times a week right after or before yoga, I've met up with friends at Molinos and had them try the peanut coffee.. but this morning was just a crappy experience. I had gone to Starbucks that is literally 2 minutes away from my house, the internet was down. ( and yes I bought a drink from them) so I decided to go to Molinos.. (15 minute drive ) I brought my coffee in and sat in the corner using my computer I was there for a hour and a half when some lady who works there finally looked at me and asked if everything ok? Looking at her confused she said "your in my coffee shop, using my internet, in a good wifi spot and you have Starbucks drink." I TOTALLY understand how that looks.. I just think she could've gone a different way about it. I think after I said " do you want me to buy something ? Because I can." She calmed down and was like " I hope you understand where I'm coming from"
Whatever you lost my business and from now on I'm going to be a crybaby and complain to all my clients about what a crappy service I got. And FYI I did buy a banana muffin, I will def miss those. . But not your stank face. Maybe you should have a sign that says no outside drinks Or wifi for customers only. Didn't see that anywhere.

Had oatmeal cookies which were soft and chewy. Had mocha latte which was pretty good. Hard to compete with starbucks. Had ginger lemon tea which was hot and flavorful. Service was friendly but laid back...

The nutella sandwhich was so good. However, the building was not air conditioned which literally drove me out from the cafe after just 45mins, to finish my projects I had planned on working on in there, but I was simply too uncomfortable hot. Granted it was very hot that day outside.
